Looks interesting

Hi. I read some info about document-coin on the wired website. I'm don't really understand how it works, however, I'm working on a chrome extension of a similar nature called "GiveMeCredit".

My biggest issue is that i can't decide which platform to use. Ethereum is the obvious choice, but it's not very developer/user friendly, and the wallet already takes soooo long to sync. I would love it if someone could build some kind of P2P/NOSQL flavoured cryptocurrency framework, even it is requires some degree of centralisation.

I guess the key components would be;

• cryptographic signing of transactions
• prevention of sybil attacks using vanity keys for registration/signing, as well as using profile scores for trust
• Transaction verification (couchDB does validation when replicating between nodes right?)
• conflict resolution and strong consistency (possible with pouchbase right?)

Anyway, here is a link to my work in progress (currently using forerunnerDB)...
